    Default Famicom Price Guide

    I've spent the past year compiling the prices of all 4,356 loose Famicom cart sales on Ebay. Using that data, I can now finally unveil the Famicom loose cart price guide. Every game that sold 3+ copies is included. Check it out!

    Amazing piece of research there! I've always found the whole Famicom collecting 'thing' intimidating but this guide will without a doubt help me slowly getting into it, so thank you!

    That's hot.

    I would make the notation that shipping is included larger as I didn't catch it on the first pass. Also make it more known that most shipping is from Japan which makes a lot of these prices seem not as bad as they are.

    Still, nice job. Was surprised to see CV1 worth the most out of all. Did I miss something or is that a typo?

    The cart is pretty expensive. You can find the disk version for a lot cheaper.

    Any reason other than popularity? ROM differences between US/PAL/Disk?

    I think it was just a late release (1993), and it's rare because of that. That and Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa were both given cart rereleases by Konami, and they're two of the most expensive Famicom games. The only difference as far as I'm aware is that they both have easy modes added.

    CV did only sell 3 copies, the minimum to make the price guide, and I think all were BINs (didn't record that). Who knows what an open auction would go for.
